In transportation, photonics helps save lives and improves safety. A vehicle - whether it is drawn, floated or driven - carries stringent physical limitations. Any photonic hardware will increase the vehicle's weight, space and power consumption. But this hardware will improve safety for drivers and passengers. Photonics also helps to inspect railroads and highways. Lasers, smart imagers and computers for data processing offer a range of capabilities for transportation industry. The proposed paper will discuss the state of the art in the area of photonic applications for transportation.
